Tiles

A week of intensity, so you can hear me taking my foot off the accelerator a bit for this one. I'd first thought to shake things up, but this one coalesced around a familiar center of gravity.
Bb F Bb F Bb C again, though while this began as three tracks, on Sunday I could hear an additional line in places, so added a fourth after the first few sections. Another section in the middle still seemed a bit too sparse, so I added a reversed version of the chords being played in the fourth track. (I did that for the restatement of that section and for one other. I also had to decide to prevent myself from overusing this effect--anything worth listening to is worth listening to backwards.)
There's the usual convolution reverb and compression/eq on the main stereo bus, but otherwise no inline effects.
The title comes from the heat-resistant tiles used on the Space Shuttle. (Borosilicate glass doesn't become workable until it's heated to 538°C.)
